Recurrent dislocation, right wrist

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

A condition where the right wrist joint repeatedly dislocates (pops out of place), often due to previous injury, ligament damage, or joint instability.

Coding Tips

  • •Confirm right side is documented; wrist dislocations are less common than shoulder/elbow, so verify diagnosis accuracy
  • •Document any associated carpal bone involvement or ligament injuries that may require additional coding
